Topic: Halloween is not the same?

I was reading Michael Myers About me on myspace. Now accordign to that michael kills his sister Halloween 1990 at age 10 very different from the original. Now I know they were reimagneing this but i didnt think ti was this different Did anyone else knwo bout this???? but to be honest with you it sounds very excellent and it also sounds very very graphic=D which we all lvoe to see check his myspace out

Re: Halloween is not the same?

I read a lot of the hoop-la when the script came out and have either read or listned to most of Rob's interviews and what not. I love the original Halloween, but to do a shot for shot reamke would be an insult to John Carpenter and Deborah Hill. Rob zombie is taking a myth and putting his spin on it and like any other remake/reimage we really can't judge until we see the product. I liked the first half of house of 1000 corpses and love TDR's so I hope he stuck with his style and vision and told everyone else to go to hell. just my $.02

Would disagree here. The whole concept about Mike is there is no explanation, he's simply evil incarnate. To explain away the character will destory some of the character's power imho.

Not even going to comment on Rob Zombie doing this one, as running down a movie before you get to see the final product doesn't make a lot of sense. Seriously hope Zombie nails this one, but have my doubts after the first script release.

I really hope that they keep the fact that he's pure evil and not turn him into a kid with a crappy family and several psychological trauma because of that. I think it's creepier if they say that it was a normal, loving and caring family and he still was evil.

Re: Halloween is not the same?

umm i think the main thing everybody should be worried about in the horror world is if this movie becomes successful will it send ripples through the horror entertainment to create more spins on classics that we all love.i mean its been done with leatherface and hills have eyes but if this really makes money it will open a floodgates of remakes that might suck.horror world needs fresh blood

Re: Halloween is not the same?

Yea I love Long Weekend we reported on that awhile back.. The Birds, Friday the 13th, The Wolfman, The Creature From the Black Lagoon.. They are all getting remakes.. Alice, Sweet Alice, Prom Night.. I could go on and on with remakes that are being made..
